[Tex/LaTex] PDF video Embedding Problem

beamermedia9

I have embed an mp4 video in the PDF file as given below:

\documentclass{beamer}
\usetheme{Singapore}
\usepackage{media9}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\begin{document}

\begin{frame}\frametitle{Title}

\includemedia[
width=\paperwidth,height=0.7\linewidth,
activate=pageopen,
flashvars={aaa.mp4 &autoPlay=true}
]{}{C:/Users/name/Desktop/aaa.mp4}

\end{frame}

\end{document}

There is no compile time error in the code but after running it this massage comes along a blank pd f file….

"To view the Flash @R Technology content in this pd f file, please install the required version of Flash Player"

I would like to add here that I already have installed the latest version of Flash Player(Adobe Flash Player 12 ActiveX).
So,Can anyone tell what version is required to be installed to obtain Video in pd f file.

  1. For Adobe Reader on Windows you need the Flash Player plugin for Firefox, not the ActiveX version for IExplorer. See: http://acrobatninja.blogspot.de/2013/02/flash-player-in-acrobat-family.html

  2. Your code has some errors, use the following instead:

\documentclass{beamer}
\usetheme{Singapore}
\usepackage{media9}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\begin{document}

\begin{frame}\frametitle{Title}

\includemedia[
  width=\paperwidth,height=0.7\linewidth,
  activate=pageopen,
  addresource=aaa.mp4,
  flashvars={source=aaa.mp4&autoPlay=true}
]{}{VPlayer.swf}

\end{frame}

\end{document}
